It's got rust, have to look for it very carefully. Im not going to weather the roof, seeing some of the cars at Billetproof with show car quality paint jobs on the roof gave me some ideas. The preal white came out with blotches and the metallic silver didn't impress me, so Im still looking at other options.

Raul, is this going to be finished by NNL West?

Got this at the last Good-Guys show. Painted MM Citrus Yellow Met. with an Olive Drab and Silver intertior, wheels/tires from '32 Sedan, and maybe a spoiler. Still needs to be cleared.

Originally going to be a mild custom, I decided to build it as a theme build for the upcoming NNL West. This is where im at in two days, I might redo the roof because im not fully content with it. paint layers... aluminium plate metalizer stainless steel metalizer flat black Krylon red oxide primer Michael's terra cotta orange Tamiya Coral Blue (hood Tamiya Bright yellow) Tamiya weathering master C and pastels Testors Dull Cote

Is it British?

Yugo? Seat? Skoda?

What are some ideal engines to transplant in the '55 Bel Air.

Does it need to be a Model T, '32 Ford and the like? Does every square inch need to be rust? Should it just be on red wheels with whitewalls? The subject is so vague that "anything goes" or are there guide lines?

One of the theme builds for NNL West is Rats, I have the Revell '55 Bel Air hardtop and need some ideas. These are some of my plans... Tamiya Coral Blue over red oxide, black, and different metalizers bumbers and continental kit from '55 Bel Air convertible Torque Thrust and Firestone tires from AMT '62 Bel Air stock grille replaced with '53 Corvette grille Buick style portholes on fender What's the best way to lower the front?

Im just glad that they're still around and you can get a model kit.

Removing chrome

Lately I've been detailing wheels and tires for fun using different technics, what are some of yours? AMT Firestone Wide Oval, white line done with India ink in groove Revell Cobra 427 and '32 Ford tires, Tamiya Bright Blue in groove like Goodyear Blue Streaks I'll get some wheels up later.

Im waiting for some stuff for the '70 Monte Carlo so I though I'd do something in the mean time. Im using the racing intake from the '67 Corvette which has four Weber 2-bbl sidedraft carbs, Crager S/S on Goodyear Polyglass, and maybe the Grand Sport hood.

Jerry had fun showing off the El Matador, I'll get pics of the show up later.

Is that why you missed the Good-Guys show?

This last weekend I got... MPC/Airfix 1:16 Shelby Cobra 427 Revell '66 El Camino Revell/Fujimi BMW 323i

How come you haven't brought this to the different shows?

What, no Stingrays and a XKE? Great build.

I've chosen a color for now, Champagne Gold with a Saddle interior. I found a light too, its a Aoshima LED light that comes with a tear drop and bubblegum style lights that work. police light

Polly S ELO (Easy Lift Off not to be confused with Electric Light Orchestra, both are good though.)

How about this? What are the yellow lights for? Whats so special about the pic?

'87 Wabbit

What is the best way to mask and paint the spokes on wheels like this while keeping a chrome lip? American Racing 200S What is the best stuff to use that replicates road grime besides Tamiya weathering sets? I have Rub 'N' Buff for worn off paint on the frame.

I don't think you would want to spend a fortune replacing trim rings and caps. more engine pics
